So I'm having my youngest daughter (I call her Squish) grow caterpillars into butterflies and teaching her about metamorphosis.



 So these are painted lady caterpillars getting ready to pupate

 And here they are in their chrysalis stage



https://i.ibb.co/DV4h6ZN/20220519-193505.jpg">



 We have 4, this one fell during pupation

 We put it on a napkin at the bottom of the butterfly habitat and it should still hatch.



 And I really like the word "pupate" lol

Hello Dovey... if you teach your daughter stuff like this then she could grow up to be a doctor. I am serious.

 Ha! That would be awesome. My oldest is starting college next year and shes dead set on becoming a nurse anesthetists.



 My little Squish right now dreams of being a vet. Shes been involved in all the animal care we have done for kittens and helping the cats around here. Her favorite subjects are all things science.

Frogs are as gross as snakes and rats.

 Did you know that frogs will actually scream if you mess with them?

It's a Termitat, you just give them water every week. They are termites.



the clear water filled cube in the picture contains 2 red cherry mini shrimp that you don't need to do anything with since they feed on the algae that grows in the cube, these shrimp are like 5 years old, they last longer than pet fish!!

update the shrimp were gotten in 2014, they were 5 originally but some passed away. The place that sold them online is no longer in business so not sure where you can buy them now.

Of course it comes with sides. I had cole slaw and onion tanglers with mine. Mom had mac and cheese and cole slaw. It's a 10 minute walk from our house.



All their food is fattening, so we won't be going there regularly.

 Oh I know they are brine shrimp. I cant get any to hatch or live more than a day. And I'm doing everything you are supposed to do.



 I guess I just suck at shrimp lol

I never had them live more than a few weeks when we tried to hatch them as kids. They don't seem to be as hardy as the Opae ula. There is one shrimp still left in "The EcoSphere and "Original Ecosphere" are trademark names for sealed blown-glass miniature aquaria",  that we bought long ago and he is 11 years old

SO I had a suprise earlier today. And Squish has been gone for nearly a week with her babba....she finally got home last night so the timing of this was perfect!



 So I'm at the counter cleaning up breakfast dishes and I notice the paper towel I have on the bottom of the butterfly habitat has what looks like fresh blood on it



https://i.ibb.co/rsjbwWN/20220526-100004.jpg">



 So I'm thinking WTF.....did one of my cats somehow bleed in there?!



 But nope....I took a peek at the chrysalides and there was a newborn butterfly just chillin in the cup part.



 I THINK that blood looking stuff is actually butterfly meconium (newborn poop)



 https://i.ibb.co/16hxFbd/20220526-100526.jpg">



 It hasnt came out of that cup yet. So it must have just hatched out by the time I noticed it. It takes them a few hours for their wings to dry and "unfold" and all that.



 This happened FAST. I checked the chrysalides last night and none of them were darkened. I read that you can tell when they are close to emerging when the chrysalis gets dark.  



 Another one that's hanging is now very dark but it looks like it shrunk. I hope it's not a dud and that's just how it looks when they hatch. I'm keeping my eye on it because I'd like to get at least one emerging on video. These little shits are quick lol.
